はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの29回目です。もうすぐ30回です。このポッドキャストは毎週更新しているので、半年以上続いている計算になります。それと、6月3日は開業記念日でした。私は2019年のこの日に、フリーランスの語学講師として税務署に開業届を提出しました。今年で3年目になります。ここまで続いているのはみなさんのおかげです。いつも本当にありがとうございます。

Hello. This is episode 29 of my podcast. It is almost 30 times. The podcast is updated weekly, which means it has been running for more than six months. Also, 3 June was my opening day. On this day in 2019, I registered my business with the tax office as a freelance language teacher. This year will be my third year. It is thanks to all of you that I have lasted this long. Thank you so much for everything.

今月末に、italki主催のウェビナーでホストを務めることになりました。日本語教育のニッチの見つけ方について話します。プレゼンテーション用のスライドを作るのは久しぶりです。今回のウェビナーは先生向けですが、先生以外の人にも役立つ内容にしたいと考えています。詳細が決まり次第お知らせします。

I will be hosting a webinar hosted by italki at the end of this month. I will be talking about how to find a niche in Japanese language teaching. It has been a long time since I have made slides for a presentation. This webinar is aimed at teachers, but I hope it will be useful for non-teachers as well. I will let you know as soon as we have more details.

大阪は暑い日が続いています。毎日最高気温が30度ぐらいあり、すっかり夏です。暑いと食欲が出ないし、筋トレも大変に感じるので、体調を崩しやすいです。鼻水は止まりましたが、家にいてばかりだと、体が重く感じます。今日は休みだったので、スーパーで買い物をした後、散歩に出かけました。

The weather in Osaka continues to be hot. The maximum temperature is around 30 degrees Celsius every day and it is totally summer. When it's hot, I don't have much of an appetite and muscle training feels hard, so it's easy to get sick. My runny nose has stopped, but if I stay at home all the time, I feel heavy. Today was my day off, so after shopping at the supermarket, I went for a walk.

私の家から近い難波駅のひとつ隣に、心斎橋という駅があります。このあたりは、デパートや外資系のブランドの路面店が多いショッピング街です。東京の新宿や表参道に似ています。午後6時ぐらいに行くと、人がたくさんいて、買い物や食事をしています。私はまず服屋に行って、それからアイスコーヒーを買いました。

29. 街を散歩する

Part of mastering communication is learning the arts. Here is a business themed poem for you to explore. After practicing with this, make your own. Take some time to ponder your business as well. 

In the bustling business bazaar, bold bankers briskly bargain. Trading trinkets, tallying treasure, they twist tongues with finance fervor. Swiftly scribing, stocks they stir, savvy whispers in the blur.
